Synopsis
Executions: The Rise and Fall of Capital Punishment
From ancient practices such as death by a thousand cuts and hanging, drawing and quartering to the modern scientific era of lethal injection, we ask the question: do the most horrific crimes deserve the most horrific of punishments?
We Are Jeni
Dr Jeni Haynes lives with Dissociative Identity Disorder, her memories held by 2,500 alternate selves. When she seeks justice for childhood abuse, a decade-long investigation asks whether fractured testimony can be believed, or whether her condition preserved the truth needed to make legal history, with police, psychiatry and the judiciary aligned together.
